  3. Did the Ninth Circuit err in determining constructive discharge contrary to the undisputed record evidence and the Supreme Court and the other Circuit Courts?

  4. Did the Ninth Circuit err in denying expert witness fees to pro se because not an attorney, with expert approved by the Judge? Is this contrary to Fourteenth Amendment, make whole remedy and in conflict with Circuit and Supreme Courts?

  5. Did the Ninth Circuit err in upholding order requiring pencil documents in a legal proceeding without copy to petitioner contrary to law and legal practice?
